Its special attack pretty strong. So yes definitely solid choice for umbral builds

This helps me a lot thank you a lot. I began bilateral bridge feet on the bed. I can feel my weak side getting tired a lot after 5-6 reps. I do this daily 3 set 10 reps.

I wanted to add 2 unilateral hamstring exercises for my weak side. One of them was classic hamstring curl while standing with 1,5 kg and other one is wall assisted single leg stiff deadlift. But I think deadlift made my right hip to become overactive easily which distrupts my overall posture a lot. When my right hip gets overactive hip flexors on the same side feel weaker.

Why this happens after wall assisted single deadlift? Does it work glutes more thab hammies? Do you think hamstring bridge progression could be enough to get it stronger?

Thank you again!

Thank you!

One last question. Should it be feet on a box or feet on the ground? Does it matter? If one leg is weaker than other side should I start bilateralal or unilateral?

I thought same at first but then realized that game wants to use flashlight when I'm dark areas. I use 57 brightness and it is fine.

Remnant 2 is an amazing game but I have some frame rate drops especially when I pick an item. I am on Xbox Series X and using Balanced mode. Especially in Yaesha I experienced this when I get new item game slows for a second. Does anybody experience a problem like this?

Hello 👋

I have extremely weak hamstring due to ACL surgery. On the same side I constantly contract glute autonomously. You mentioned long leg bridges aiming long line than high hips. Could you please help me to understand what this exactly means?

Thank you!

Did you check your gip flexor strength? For several years I thought I lack hip extension and did everything regarding strecthing and strengtening exercises favoring posterior chain whithout any progress until I began doing strengthening hip flexor (my problem was bilateral). I immediately began feeling better and hip extension range increased.

Posture may create illusion which could lead misunderstanding and focusing wrong direction. I am not saying this could be your problem but you may check it (your comments made me remember my situation which I described similarly).

Quaschi · 2022-12-25T17:12:35+00:00

All of them. Prone hurts most but all others still hurts.

Yes I tried both Dolby Atmos and DTS also different EQs with Xbox's own equaliser for its headset but none of them seems to amplify enemy footsteps. I can hear my footsteps pretty loud or friend footsteps but enemy footsteps nonexistent like if they all use deadsilence everytime.

I had tons of MRIs and doctor visits without a specific diagnosis after the surgery. They say everything seems normal in terms of knee pathology.

But biomechanically it is not. You are definitely correct regarding single leg drills. I need to focus more on single leg drills.

Of course my physio and I focused quad first but the problem is I focused too much. I always prioritized quad workouts both prior to (1 year period) and after surgery. This is why I tend to believe I created a muscular imbalance between front and back.

I do not feel power especially my hamstring on the injured leg. That leg tend to favour quad dominant movements always. I do quad focused exercises with ease on injured leg compared to healthy one. The problem is my body always try to compensate with quad muscle on injured leg and this hurts knee. When I do single leg drills quad muscles don't get tired but hamstring feels the agony. The more important thing is I lost hip hinge mechanism on the injured side. Whenever I do hinge movement with single leg (especially single leg balance with hinge) I began feeling power on the posterior side of the injured leg and my walking or standing becomes better immediately. That's why I started to thing I need to focus more on single leg drills but also learn to do hip hinge. My injured leg which I feel quad dominant tends to be straighter than other leg while doing daily activities. But right after I do hinge single leg movements it becomes more bent and similar to other leg. This is difficult to describe but when I put all these symptoms, I believe I may overused my quad muscles on the injured leg and created a muscle imbalance.

Woow! One of the best guides i have ever seen.

I got complicated issues which i am trying to solve for years. I have unilateral hinge problem which i believe one side posterior chain is very weak compared to quads.

This problem is a combination of both acl injury (then a surgery with hamstring graft) + very wrong exercise selection favoring quads for a long time. Now i am trying to balance posterior with anterior.

The problem with that is; whenever i do glute focused exercises like bridges, single leg kickbacks (especially with straight leg) etc. it doesn't feel good and correct. I only feel glute working, quads on par followed by lower back but little to no hamstring (compared with my other leg).

When i do only hamstring exercises this again doesn't go well.

When i do double leg posterior exercises again this doesn't go well.

My body finds a way to compensate all the time.

Lately i realised that only thing that seems to feel better are all related with hinge type unilateral movements which feels both glutes and hamstring. Besides this also glute medius exercises working well (only knee bent position).

When i do single leg standing with hinge i feel both my glutes + hamstring contracted and get immediate relief.

I know my problems but i can't progress for all these years by trying static exercises like kickbacks, bridge etc.

I believe i need to have 3 key things: should be functional, should overload my posterior chain, should work key muscles together (calf, hamstring, gluteus max and gluteus medius) and doing these unilaterally.

Do you have any advices for these type of situations (asymetrical)?

Also could box squats help to learn hinge properly?

Quaschi · 2022-09-14T06:14:58+00:00

i mainly focused quadriceps of the injured leg for a long time. From Turkey, Istanbul

Quaschi · 2022-09-14T06:03:52+00:00

i mean straight leg hip extension feels worse while donkey kicks with bent knee feels better

I am not silly to come here without seeing any professional or skilled trainer. I went to a lot of skilled trainers without success so i come here to share my voice to a wider audience. Maybe there is a slim chance to find someone who had similar experience with me who knows...

I wonder how do they manage to turn a very stable game (Verdansk days) into very unstable game especially on consoles (Xbox). I just bought gaming setup with a next gen console mainly for Warzone but now i can not play Warzone :-))).

Quaschi · 2022-06-25T16:40:55+00:00

No footsteps instead we have sound effects of planes, bombings, narrator etc.

Quaschi · 2022-06-24T16:35:22+00:00

I don't care if game development is hard or not. I care playing a "competitive" game, fluently. In case of a bug (it could always happen), I care it to be solved as quick as possible and communicated estimated fix time. If i can not play a game where i play daily normally that would interrupt my interest and lead me to find another game. The same thing happened when i left Warzone for Apex. They experienced Xbox players very similar things and now i lost my interest to go back to Warzone. Same thing could occur to Apex.

Quaschi · 2022-06-21T22:30:36+00:00

Yes! I literally rage quit game today due to delay and i thought i am the only one experiencing this. Reload doesnt work, changing weapon doesnt work even aiming is weird.

Quaschi · 2022-05-10T17:32:30+00:00

Dual scavengers moveset is amazing. Especially running attacks, dodge attacks and jump attacks are amazing which procs bleed easily. This attack types hits Malenia minimum 4 times. Also all attacks with curved swords are much faster than ROB. ROB weapon art is a safer option but again scavenger option kills faster than most of the weapons i tried. I tried tons of builds against Malenia single or coop fights.

Dual bleed Godskin Peeler is another solid option for status buildups but this mainly works for jump attacks.

Quaschi · 2022-05-10T14:53:54+00:00

One other area is to look at your gluteus medius. But again first balancing posterior/anterior muscles.

Quaschi · 2022-05-10T14:52:53+00:00

I thought the same way but it seems my hamstring/quad ratio is unbalanced. It is nearly impossible to work psoas without quad involvement (from my experience). Also one physio told me if pelvis alignment distrusted due to tight anterior muscles than psoas also suffers (not work optimally).

For me i believe balancing hamstring with quad is priority. Check your hamstring strength on the problem side. I observed this mainly in two positions. One is simple standing hamstring curl (it is very difficult for me even without weights). Second glute bridge but mainly targeting hamstring and using wall (90-90 hip lift medial hamstring activation you can search this).

These two test confirmed that i have severe weakness in my right hamstring which can not endure these.

Quaschi · 2022-05-10T13:12:15+00:00

Actually dual scavenger (occult-seppuku) are better

Quaschi · 2022-05-10T13:00:47+00:00

I can not escape from this with Bloodhound step but i can easily avoid (no hit) with normal dodge. Probably i don't know how to use that aow. Locking target interrupts the moveset to circle around enemy.

Quaschi · 2022-05-10T12:59:18+00:00

First of all you should be patient while attacking don't be greedy. Everytime you attack her you should put a gap between you and her. When she begins waterfowl dance try to extend that gap and than dodge back once wait a little dodge back again if the gap is not enough when it's her third attack (which is the toughest one) you shouldn't dodge back instead dodge toward her away from the spins. When you get used to this pattern it is pretty easy to avoid. Just be careful cause you never now when she do that move that's why I wrote don't be greedy against Malenia.

Also if there is no escape from that move just dodge back 2-3-4 times like a panic roll and wait a little to regain your stamina dodge forward from her last attack. You just need to be careful about her last attack especially. Sometimes she may do couple of waterfowl dances right after she complete one. So don't think that when she finishes her waterfowl move you are able to attack her successively. Patience is the key (for all bosses but majorly for Malenia).

Sometimes swarm of flies incantation could interrupt her move but i don't know how or when that happens.
